Listener comments!
	9:01pm fleep: Yeah, it better be a good one. It's going on your permanent record.
	♥ 9:07pm efd: Luckily my permanent record is written in invisible ink
	♥ 9:19pm Julie M: Nice cover. Over the weekend I heard her cover of George Harrison's "Within You Without You," which was also really good!
	9:19pm andrewb: boy what a voice that Patti
	♥ 9:20pm medson: Hey Evan. Cant wait to get your DJ Premium and all the rest of my swag. Awesome crop this year
	♥ 9:20pm Drunken Creep: Patti and band sounding beautiful
	9:20pm JakeGould: Wonder if you could go back to your public school and get your permanent record? I still have my elementary school report cards. Oh those notes!!!
	9:24pm fleep: medson, have you seen the cover of efd's premium? apparently there was a period of time in the 70s when the entire world ran out of shirts.
	♥ 9:26pm Fuzzy: Curious about that cover, like -- who is it? I thought Def Leppard for a sec, but that ain't right.
	♥ 9:26pm medson: @fleep I did see it and I was thinking the same thing. It was the 70's who needed shirts or seatbelts. hahaha
	9:29pm andrewb: havent thought about this magazine cut in decades . would have thought it was buzzcocks
	9:31pm johnk77: soviet valves perhaps a reference to tubes? vacuum tubes in a guitar amp
	9:32pm andrewb: i was half right
	9:32pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: You beat me to the punch motherf*cker.
	9:34pm JakeGould: Shhh… Don’t tell Evan than nobody cares about CDs nowadays. We just rip them!!!
	9:35pm johnk77: lenny kaye is djing on siriusxm underground garage
	♥ 9:36pm Drunken Creep: Was just going to mention that Jay Dee Daugherty drumming was really shining on that earlier track.
	♥ 9:45pm efd: yes, so great!!
	9:46pm johnk77: sovietvalves.bandcamp.com/releases does include a blurry image of vacuum tubes perhaps Sovtek brand? also rockin show tonight;>
	♥ 9:49pm efd: thanks x2, johnk!
	♥ 9:57pm medson: It shows they are from SF
	♥ 10:00pm efd: thanks for confirming, medson!
	10:02pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Cherry giving off somewhat of a Parquet Courts vibe here...
	10:10pm herb.nyc: wnyc has a pledge drive now, and its no fun hearing it. wfmu makes it fun for us, and themselves. Thx. I just wanted to say I'll be doing my usual donation PLUS 1%, something I started after Occupy. Maybe others will want to as well. Every little bit helps. (When I donate to Todd's show maybe I make it MINUS 1%.)
	10:14pm Figgsrock: Wait, is this new (or newish) OMD? This is pretty great. Who knew?
	10:14pm Steve: Hey Todd-o-phonic Todd, any upcoming new interviews like the excellent one you recently did with Eric Carmen ?
	10:15pm Number Six: Evening, efd & all! New OMD is fantastic!
	♥ 10:15pm efd: @Figgsrock yeah, came out last fall!
	10:17pm Figgsrock: @efd is it all sort of like this song? If so, you’re making me buy yet another album.
	10:18pm Number Six: Sounds like they've been listening to a lot of Kraftwerk.
	♥ 10:18pm efd: definitely worth picking up imo
	10:18pm Steve: EFD, I see where there is going to be a deluxe expanded edition of John Foxx's classic 1980 album, 'Metamatic' coming out in the U.K. this May. Is that something you would play on your show ?
	♥ 10:20pm efd: very likely! I liked that album a lot back in the day, saw that news about the reissue as well.
	10:20pm katharsis: Ok
	10:21pm Steve: Cool, I'd love to hear it !
	10:22pm Number Six: New Ladytron!
	10:23pm Michael from the Left Coast: Ladytron should have been right after OMD--this track is very reminiscent of early OMD
	♥ 10:24pm efd: honestly that's kind of why I separated them! :)
	10:24pm Figgsrock: I’ll add it to my pick up list. My music budget needs to have a built in EFD show portion each year at this point.
	♥ 10:25pm efd: also I wanted Ladytron to be right before the mic break
	10:25pm kbo: Haven't heard from Ladytron in a very long while! Honestly surprised to hear that they're still around
	♥ 10:27pm DC: That new Ladytron was outstanding on the ears
	♥ 10:33pm DC: The good news keeps coming. Rat Scabies is Damned exciting
	10:37pm kbo: Always thought PNK SLM stood for "pink slim", hahah
	♥ 10:38pm Julie M: I was going to say "punk slam"... I like slime better, though. More punky. Night Evan and all!
	♥ 10:42pm efd: goodnight Julie!
	10:43pm medson: It’s been a long day. Good night all. I’ll catch the rest on the archive Evan. Great show.
	♥ 10:45pm efd: alright, thanks medson!
	10:58pm Number Six: Here's a live video of OMD performing Isotype. Check out who the Audio Engineer is! youtu.be...
	♥ 11:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Practice makes perfect!
	11:05pm Marc15: Fournaise a la grenouillere means “The furnace has grenouillere”
	♥ 11:27pm DC: Nice with the Sloan
	11:33pm kbo: That Bellamy Brothers song got stuck in my head after having watched HBO's The Leftovers last month, hahah
	♥ 11:34pm efd: thx DC and thanks for that clip Number Six! WFMUers are everywhere!
	11:34pm Patster: Little Darlings closing credits!
	♥ 11:34pm efd: oh funny, I haven't seen that! So I have only myself to blame. :)
	11:38pm kbo: what I was referring to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DegpVgfGbZQ
	11:38pm Theo: Enjoy your energy...
	11:42pm Theo: When is the next AWESOME 80’s Metal Dance Party?
	11:42pm Zetti: Wow, Romanelli, super rare.
	11:43pm Theo: My girl and I danced in the living room to the WHOLE show...
	♥ 11:44pm efd: ha, I remember you Theo! Don't have one of those planned at the moment but I had a lot of fun doing that show.
	11:47pm Theo: It was a GREAT night...but every night can be. You made it better. My GF called you to tell you how much fun we were having...
	11:57pm fleep: It was a good one! (But it always is.) Thanks, efd.
	6:30pm Pex: Yes, Soviet Valves was a reference to Soviet valves.
	6:31pm Pex: I blew my amp at our first rehearsal, took it to this guy, he rang me a few days later saying he needs to replace the valves and got some from USSR. this was 2004 and I already forgotten what USSR was. Told the singer what happened and he said: thats the name for the band, Soviet Valves!
